"You will not renew your practice
at time like this?" asked Marianne,
in terror. ''Think of yourself and of
us. 1 am mortally afraid of typhus."
''It would be an unworthy physician
who thought of himself in such crisis.
Are you afraid, Papillon?'
"Yes, very much so," she said,
blushing, as if in shame at her weak
ness. But if one / loved needed my
help as nurse l should not hesitate to
give it."
The doctor, on his return at noon from
the consultation, looked grave and anx-
ious.
1--WE hope that in town the disease
will be confined to isolated cases." he
said; "but in the outlying villages it has
become epidemic. You will see but
little of me. l must do all l can, and
l would like my meals at as early an
hour as possible.
All at once Desiree laid her hand
upon his arm, and gazing intently into
his face, said, with tremulous voice:
''Uncle, do you think our guest has
taken the route to the villages?"
A sudden pain as from some sharp
instrument shot through the doctors
heart, but he answered, calmly:
THAT is scarce imaginable. The

He did not come this night or the

Desiree wandered restlessly about the

Principles Are Above Reproach.
Regardless of a previous engage

important business first" said a man
who claimed promptness as one of his
virtues. '.Do you know Bill Aikers?"
YES" some one replied.
"Well, Bill is shining example of
this principle. Some time ago he had
an appointment 10 meet a fellow who
had promised to box his jaws. The
time came. but Bill had not arrived,
and the fellow had begun to cast re-

from Bill, which read as follows, was
handed him: Just as l was coming o

They had reached the strawberry
bed-a mass of glowing red among
green leaves. Desiree gave little cry
of delight. She was again Papillon.
"What an abundance ripened over

may help" she cried, reaching him the
basket. al fear you viii not show
much skill. Do you really know how
to tell the ripe berries from the green
ones?''
He laughed and took the basket.
Desiree began to pick hastily. For a
lew moments he tried to help; then he
set the basket on the ground near her,
and sprang over the bed to the bench
beneath the old linden.

TRAINING THE YOUNG.
The Parental Duty Which Society Owes tt
the Youth of the Land.

The ParenCal w nicn society owes TO
the Youth of the Land.
The parental duty of the community
is something which even our modern
philosophers, as Il rule, neglect to en-
phasize, and yet the fact rem.ins that
the community has parental duty to
discharge toward every minor. A child
is not merely the parents child; it is al
ready member of society, and it is the
duty of society to see that proper adj
vantages for the training of youth are
provided. The Importance of the home
surroundings upon the growing lad or
lass is something which all enlightened
people appreciate, but the popular sense
of the parental duty of the community
is vet to be awakened.
The community is responsible equally
with the parent for the training of the
child. 1t is the duty of the community
to see that the child is provided with an
education which shall surely reveal
himself to himself, that may. awaken
some definite aspiration within him and
bend his energies toward preparation
for some calling by which he is by tenn
permanent and power of application
qualified. 1t is the parental duty of So
ciety to see that its youth are trained to
become useful members of the COM
munity. and not set adrift upon the
world unprepared to hew their way.
Otherwise, society must foot the bills.
